Bitcoin At Its Peak: MicroStrategy Surprises The Markets Again
In a context where Bitcoin reaches historic highs beyond 81,000 dollars, MicroStrategy sees its investment strategy paying off with a return on investment now exceeding 100%.
An Investment Strategy in Bitcoin That Pays Off
MicroStrategy has just crossed a major milestone in its Bitcoin investment journey. Its portfolio of 252,200 BTC, acquired at an average price of 39,292 dollars, now reaches a record valuation of 20.54 billion dollars. This remarkable performance represents a return on investment of over 104%, validating the vision of Executive Chairman Michael Saylor.
This success positions MicroStrategy as the largest institutional holder of Bitcoin, far ahead of its competitors. The mining companies Marathon Digital and Riot Platforms follow with respective portfolios of 2.1 billion and 840 million dollars in BTC.
The company does not intend to stop there. It has unveiled an ambitious “21/21 plan” aimed at raising 42 billion dollars over three years, divided evenly between stocks and fixed-income securities, to further increase its position in Bitcoin.
A Ripple Effect on Other Institutional Players
The success of MicroStrategy inspires other institutions around the world. The Bhutan, a small Himalayan kingdom, now sees its BTC holdings exceed one billion dollars, representing 32% of its GDP according to IMF data. The country has developed significant mining infrastructure and uses Bitcoin as a strategic reserve.
El Salvador, the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, also records significant gains. Its portfolio of 5,930 BTC is now worth over 482 million dollars, generating nearly 214 million dollars in unrealized profits. Despite the criticism faced during the 2022 crash, the country continues its acquisition strategy with the daily purchase of one bitcoin.
The rise of Bitcoin beyond 80,000 dollars validates these institutional investment strategies initiated several years ago. This trend could encourage other major players to follow MicroStrategy’s example, further strengthening Bitcoin’s legitimacy as an institutional store of value.
